00:00I get attacked by a bad guy who's a rugger, as he throws a big heavy punch, I block, using
00:17my elevated elbow and create a frame with my hand.
00:20My free hand goes to the back of his neck, I clinch, and now his mid-vision is over to
00:26my kidneys.
00:27From here, I throw a knee to his mid-vision.
00:29It can be solar plexus, it can be ribs.
00:32Either way, it works a lot.
00:33I'm going to throw a couple of them.
00:35If he bends down lower, his head is available to me as well.
00:38I'm going to hit a couple of them, make space, and get out.
00:42From the phone, someone comes to the back and locks against your body.
00:59First, get into the phone.
01:01It's not going to help you.
01:03Now, lock the wrist, your hand goes on the inside, and I lock in what is called the kimura.
01:10From here, I'm going to thrust his hand through, and now I'm going to pinch my elbow, I'm going
01:16to turn his wrist, make his wrist touch his head.
01:19I'm going to turn, I'm going to take my hand out, and I'm going to pinch his wrist to his
01:23head.
01:24If he does nothing, his shoulder is going to pop off.
01:27If he wants to defend it, he's going to roll a little bit, alleviate the pain, and when
01:32he does, we finish off in a side control position with his shoulder locked in.
01:38Now, if I take his wrist to his head, I break his shoulder, and we're free.
01:46When someone is pushing you, or holding your collar, what can you do from there?
02:06I've got a bad guy who comes, he grabs my collar, I want to take my hand on the inside,
02:11I feed it to my arm, it's called the arm drag, I pull the person in, and I do a body lock
02:16with the hand grab.
02:18This is the hand that's going to be beating me up with, because that's controlling him.
02:22Now, with this hand grab, I can drop him in.
02:24How do I do that?
02:25I take my leg, catch his far leg, now I trip him towards my right, this way.
02:32Once he's followed, I'm going to switch my hand, control his main defensive hand.
02:37Now, I can adjust, I can get my other leg in, now with his main hand grab, his neck
02:42is isolated.
02:43I take my hand, I grab around his neck, and now I'm ready to attack the rear naked choke,
02:49which is one of the strongest submissions that there is.
02:53Here, before someone comes in, he pushes me back.
03:06If I do nothing, he's going to punch me in the face.
03:11He knocked me out.
03:13So, once I'm pushed back, the first thing I'm going to do is block his hip with my feet,
03:19my other leg comes up, blocks his chest.
03:21Now, when he goes to punch me, he can't reach my face.
03:23Simple.
03:24Now, from here, my hand reaches down, finds his ankle.
03:28My leg now can let go of his chest, because I'm going to give an attack now.
03:33My leg comes in, I grab his knee, I push, pull, sweep, I get a knock, and now I can do
03:41the same damage you wanted to do.
